However what D-MC says is very true and relevant and I think a person that honestly reads the Bible at face value has to take a stand for something as 'absolute truth.' But I would hope that HUU is a step in the right direction and not the end of the journey.<BR/><BR/>In the end if what Jesus taught is true and right, then somebody is right and somebody is wrong and the consequences of being wrong can be eternal.<BR/><BR/>One thing I see missing from your church list of church hops is the Christian Church, churches. A few local to you:<BR/>Eastside Christian Church - personally I have very mixed views on this church.<BR/>Mt. Carmel Christian Church<BR/>Parkside Christian Church<BR/><BR/>And Loveland Christian Church. This is a church I've attended a few times and it is a very good church.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26687700.post-42531360097735122542007-06-04T15:18:00.000-04:002007-06-04T15:18:00.000-04:00Hey Eebs,I was just sitting here enjoying my vacat...Hey Eebs,<BR/>I was just sitting here enjoying my vacation and surfing your site as well as the UU church you recently attended to learn more about them.<BR/><BR/>On their website's Adult Education page they made the following statement which I think sums up my (and possibly others) objections to the UU group.<BR/><BR/><I>Recognize that no one has a monopoly on truth, that all of us have valuable knowledge and experience to share.</I><BR/><BR/>On the surface this sounds great. I certainly agree with the second half. There is a logical problem, however, with the first half. <BR/><BR/>The statement may in fact be true, but since they believe no one person or group can state what truth is authoritatively (since they do not hold a monopoly) how can we know if it is true?<BR/><BR/>I think the answer you would receive would be, "we don't claim there is no truth, but that no one group can possess/own/lay hold to all truth."<BR/><BR/>The question though is, on what grounds does this group have the authority to state as truth that no other group can have a monopoly on truth?<BR/><BR/>I know it's not the point of your blog debate such things, and thats not what I'm trying to do. I'm just curious as to what their answer would be.<BR/><BR/>I'm heading to disneyworld though so I'll catch up with you later.david b mclaughlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06283484533908383151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26687700.post-13329891183550420272007-05-29T21:02:00.000-04:002007-05-29T21:02:00.000-04:00If you have found a community where you feel welco...If you have found a community where you feel welcome and know that it is a place where you can continue to grow, my thought is that you should stick with it. I don't know what your plans were for the life of Church Hop, but it seems to have filled a void in your life in different ways. Your Sunday mornings have been complete for over a year, filled with new experiences and learning, and now you have found a home. What else was the point?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10062539217179702298noreply@blogger.com
